Not enough "Golden Leifer" to upgrade to Hearthfire Realm.
Morning ends.
Lu Ning went to Yongle Palace to tell the empress some good news.
"Marshal Mu Yan planned for three days, starting from noon yesterday and continuing until the evening, and finally defeated Tu Chenglong's 600,000 cavalry."
"Kill the enemy 70,000, and injure yourself 17,000."
"It can be said to be a great victory."
Hearing this, the empress was excited, but also a little sad.
If I had known this, I would not have let Gu Fengtang take command in the first place.
She originally wanted to give Gu Fengtang a chance, but Gu Fengtang couldn't stop Tu Chenglong.
"Is there any news about Gu Shuai?"
Lu Ning said: "Gu Shuai was rescued, so he should be fine."
He knew that Gu Fengtang was rescued by Lin Jian. The key was that he didn't know where Lin Jian took Gu Fengtang.
"But King Yongshan created public opinion, saying that the imperial court was shameless, and invited second-grade experts to join the battle, breaking the rules first."
"Weichen is thinking that King Yongshan may invite second-grade experts to join the battle next."
"The commander-in-chief may not be able to stop him."
Hearing this, a cold look flashed in the empress's eyes: "As long as King Yongshan dares to invite a second-grade expert, I will ask the Sword Lord to take action."
Lu Ning's eyes flashed slightly: "Is Senior Sword Master on the golden stage?"
The empress nodded and said: "Here, come with me to have a look."
Lu Ning nodded and left Yongle Palace with the empress, heading towards the Golden Platform.
As soon as they arrived at the golden platform, the commander who guarded the golden platform stopped the empress and Lu Ning: "Go back to your majesty, Senior Sword Master is in seclusion. He won't see anyone."
"Your Majesty, please come back."
"When did the retreat start?" Lu Ning looked at the commander and asked with a frown.
"Sir Hui Lu, Senior Jianzun has been in seclusion for a month." The commander said.
Lu Ning raised his sword eyebrows and rushed towards the golden stage with his consciousness, but was stopped by a tyrannical force.
He immediately looked at the empress and said, "Senior, there is nothing we can do about it."
The empress took a deep breath and said, "Senior, did you say when you will be released from seclusion?"
The commander shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, I have no explanation."
The empress turned around and left, got on the dragon and drove away.
"Chang'an, you are always paying attention to what is happening on the battlefield. King Yongshan invites the second-grade experts, and I will ask the master to take action." The empress sat on the dragon and said with a deep eyebrow.
"Ahem...!"
Lu Ning coughed slightly and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to trouble Master Baiyun Temple. It is enough for the ministers to go and help in the battle."
The empress glanced at her with phoenix eyes: "You are only a second-grade person, how can you be as powerful as my master? It's different to stay in Beijing and Zhou to guard the imperial city."
Lu Ning said speechlessly: "Your Majesty, I am a humble minister...!"
The empress interrupted him and said: "Okay, I am not very relieved when Tianbei goes to the battlefield, so please don't cause trouble."
Will I cause trouble if I go??
Lu Ning curled his lips speechlessly.
…
Yunzhou City.
Mu Yan summoned General Liao Yan of the Golden Sword Guard from Yezhou.
Liao Yan was wearing black and red armor, with a burly figure. He wore a long golden sword on his waist. It was not a scimitar. The long sword looked slightly straight, and the scabbard was palm-wide.
As for what the golden sword looks like, I can't see it.
The eyes of Xue Jingnian and others all fell on Liao Yan, who was in the early stage of the third level of cultivation, had been killing all year round, and had a powerful aura.
"Liao Yan, the general of the Golden Sword Guard, comes to see the Commander-in-Chief."
"No gift!"
Mu Yan waved his hand.
When Liao Yan led his army to Tianbie Mountain, it was already evening and the battlefield had been cleared.
Mu Yan did not summon him. He summoned Liao Yan this morning and stationed the Golden Sword Guards at Tianbie Mountain instead of coming to the city.
"Sit down and discuss the next battle."
Although Mu Yan has an idea in mind, he still wants to hear everyone's opinions.
After Liao Yan sat down, Chen Hu took the lead and said: "Marshal, we should pursue the victory and give the enemy a hard blow today."
Mao Junchen said: "Yes, this battle was fought beautifully, and the momentum of the Black Dragon Cavalry and the Silver Armor Army were defeated. We should take advantage of the situation and take back Luotian City."
Chen Kai said: "Commander Mu, the last general also believes that taking advantage of the situation to attack, Tu Chenglong's confidence will be defeated. If the enemy's momentum is suppressed, Luotian City can be recaptured by charging all the way."
Gu Wushuang and others did not speak, but nodded frequently.
Xue Jingnian smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Pei Tian, who was standing behind Mu Yan, laughed sadly: "Do you know why Tu Chenglong was defeated yesterday?"
Everyone couldn't help but frown and look at him.
Pei Tianbei glanced at everyone and continued:
"The defeat is because they are arrogant and do not take you seriously."
"It is simply impossible for you to beat him today and want to kill him as wantonly as you did yesterday."
"The reason why our army was defeated in Luotian City was not because the general was incompetent, but because he didn't understand the Black Dragon Riders enough."
"It's just like Tu Chenglong doesn't understand enough about the Demon-Suppressing Iron Cavalry."
"In addition, the commander-in-chief used some tricks, so Tu Chenglong was defeated."
"Do you really think you are brave and invincible?"
As he said that, Pei Tianbei glanced at everyone with disdain, and then said:
"Unless I come!"
Everyone: "......!!"
If you want to go up, just say it, don't say it in a long way.
Putting aside the last sentence, Pei Tianbei's analysis still surprised Mu Yan, and he immediately asked: "If I give you 10,000 cavalry, what are you going to do?"
Pei Tianbei's eyes lit up, the opportunity finally came.
He immediately patted his chest and said: "If the marshal gives me ten thousand cavalry, I will only do one thing: attack Huanglong and cut off its retreat."
"Bypass Luotian City and attack Yongzhou directly."
"Within three days, my subordinates will surely defeat Yongzhou and make it impossible for King Yongshan to return to his old nest."
Hearing this, everyone on the entire city tower was stunned.
Yongzhou is the home of King Yongshan and must be heavily guarded. Only a fool would dare to say that Yongzhou should be defeated within three days.
Besides, when the army left Yongzhou, how could King Yongshan not be prepared for someone to sneak attack his base in the rear?
Seeing everyone looking at him in shock, Pei Tianbei proudly raised his chin, looked at Mu Yan and said, "Marshal, please give the order."
Mu Yan's face was silent. Suddenly he coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Oh God, what did I say just now?"
"ah?"
Pei Tianbei was stunned and said hurriedly: "Marshal, didn't you just say you would give me 10,000 cavalry? If that's not possible, the most ordinary cavalry will do."
"Did I say that?"
Mu Yan shook his head and said: "Impossible, you have to protect me. If you leave, who will protect me?"
Pei Tianbei: "...!!"
Seeing everyone laughing, Pei Tianbei blushed in depression.
A bunch of idiots, still dare to laugh at me?
Pei Tianbei glanced at everyone speechlessly and stood aside without speaking, just listening to Mu Yan discussing the war with Chen Hu, Xue Jingnian and others.
well!
When can I, Pei Tianbei, lead the army?
At this time, Xue Jingnian quietly came over and smiled helplessly at Pei Tianbei: "Go straight to Huanglong? Little brother, you think too simply."
Pei Tianbei glanced at Xue Jingnian and said nothing, but he firmly believed that his move to attack Huanglong would definitely succeed.
Not only will it succeed, but it will also give King Yongshan a heavy blow.
It can be said to be absolutely beneficial and harmless to the upcoming war.
If I really want to say it's not good, there's only one thing about it, and that is to arouse the determination of King Yongshan and others to fight against the odds.
After all, the old nest was destroyed, so we had to fight to the death.
Noon.
There was no provocation from Tu Chenglong's army, and Mu Yan did not take the initiative to attack.
He asked Pei Feng to be called.
"See Marshal."
"General Pei Feng, come forward." Mu Yan said with a smile.
Pei Feng stepped forward, and Mu Yan took out a bag of tips from his arms and handed it to Pei Feng and said: "After lunch, the general will select three thousand elite black tiger cavalry to go to Zhuxian City to escort the grain and grass."
Hearing this, Pei Feng was stunned and said: "Marshal, there is enough food and grass in the city to feed the army for a month..."
Mu Yan said: "We have to fight a protracted war and be prepared for a rainy day. Pei Feng, go quickly."
"As for the bag of tips, the general can open it after leaving the city."
Pei Feng had a depressed look on his face, he was just escorting some food and fodder, what else do he need?
After Pei Feng left.
Mu Yan glanced at Pei Tianbei, who was sitting not far away and was bored.
It happened that Pei Tianbei also looked over at this time and said: "Marshal, when are we going to eat? My stomach is growling with hunger."
Mu Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head. This little general wished he could eat five meals a day.
Immediately ordered people to prepare lunch.
Pei Tianbei had a big meal and began to rest.
All night long, Mu Yan quietly patted him awake.
"There is an enemy...!"
Pei Tianbei stood up, but his mouth was covered.
When he saw it was Mu Yan, he shushed him.
He nodded immediately.
"Keep your voice down."
Mu Yan released Pei Tianbei's mouth, gave him a bag of tips and said, "Don't ride a horse alone. Open it after you go out of the east gate."
Pei Tianbei was slightly stunned, but then he understood that the marshal had given him a task.
He nodded heavily immediately.
After grabbing the kit, Pei Tianbei held a spear in his hand and quietly walked towards the east gate of the city.
Keep away from the east gate of the city and get into a dense forest.
"...Don't say that I didn't give you a chance. This is your only chance to prove yourself!"
Pei Tian couldn't wait to open the bag, and as soon as he took a look, he laughed out loud.
Then he hurriedly covered his mouth and ran towards the north.
North of Yunzhou City.
In a mountain col, Pei Feng led three thousand elite black tiger cavalry, looking at the figure running towards them.
Pei Feng was extremely depressed.
Mu Yan finally let Pei Tianbei lead the army.
Maybe this is fate.
"Uncle, I'm here!" Pei Tianbei was very excited.
Pei Feng chuckled, pointed at a black tiger and said, "That black tiger belongs to your Uncle Hua Rong, and it belongs to you from now on."
"Very good!"
Pei Tian was filled with sorrow and joy, and he landed on top of the black tiger. The black tiger raised its head and let out a deep roar.
"The three armies...well, there is no three armies. The marshal wants you all to obey my orders. Uncle, from now on, there will be no uncle-nephew relationship. You will all call me General, General Pei."
"General Pei!"
Pei Feng shook his head helplessly. When he shouted, three thousand sergeants followed suit.
"Okay, if you call me General, I will lead you to achieve success no matter what!"
"Let's set out and walk along Beimang Iron Horse Galaxy, pass through Yunlu Mountain in Sangzhou, and approach Yongzhou."
Pei Tianbei shouted loudly and rode the black tiger towards the north.
When Pei Feng and others heard this, they were stunned.
Take the Iron Horse Galaxy in Beimang, then Yunlu Mountain in Sangzhou, and go straight to Yongzhou. Do you know how far it is?
If you don't rest for three days and three nights, you won't be able to run.
But fortunately, their three thousand elite Black Tigers were quite fast.
"Walk!"
Pei Feng shouted lowly, they had no choice but to follow Mu Yan's order and they could only go crazy along with Pei Tianbei.
…
June 27th.
No one noticed that Pei Tianbei disappeared.
Maybe everyone didn't take him seriously.
Mu Yan summoned the generals and said: "King Yongshan has arrived in person with fifty thousand cavalry. Generals, there will be a fierce battle from today to tomorrow."
"We must not let King Yongshan's army pass through Zhuxian City."
"After passing Zhuxian City, the road is smooth, and we can no longer stop King Yongshan."
Everyone nodded silently. If King Yongshan's army could defeat Zhuxian City, the capital and Zhou Dynasty would be in danger.
"Therefore, I beg you generals to defend Yunzhou City. It won't take long, it only needs to be ten days."
"Keep it for ten days, and the imperial court's 300,000 cavalry will come to support. King Yongshan will be defeated by then."
When a marshal said this, Xue Jinnian, Chen Hu and others nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, marshal, we will fight to the death with the rebels."
Zuo Hongchen, on the other hand, frowned and said, "Marshal Mu, are there 300,000 cavalry in the imperial court?"
The imperial court has been recruiting troops, but it seems that there are not many men yet, right?
What's more, it doesn't even have training, it's worse than a demon-suppressing iron cavalry.
At least the Demon Suppressors received military-style training when they joined the Demon Suppression Division. Although they were not as rigorous as Black Tiger Cavalry, Flying Dragon Cavalry and others, they still received years of training.
"If I say there is, then there will be."
Mu Yan's voice was as deep as iron, so there was no need to question it.
Xue Jingnian stared at Mu Yan silently, because he knew very well that the imperial court did not have 300,000 cavalry at all, and Mu Yan said this just to give them reassurance.
If the imperial court really had 300,000 cavalry, it would have been revealed at the very beginning to strike fear into the hearts of the rebels.
Even in the battle the day before yesterday, the opportunity was rare. If you pull it out, you can kill at least half of the rebel army.
Xue Jingnian thought to himself that if he were the marshal, he might say the same thing.
…
Funiu Mountain.
Yongshan King Camp.
In the central tent, King Yongshan stared at Tu Chenglong with a solemn expression.
Tu Chenglong's face was extremely pale and he felt very depressed.
"Hahaha……!"
Suddenly, King Yongshan, who had a serious expression on his face, burst out laughing. He stood up and patted Tu Chenglong on the shoulder with his big hand and said, "Jackie Chan, why are you nervous? Isn't it just a defeat?"
"Victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists."
"That's what the prince said."
Tu Chenglong took a deep breath, he had already concluded the defeat.
The first point was that he did not expect that Mu Yan would be the one to replace the commander in the imperial court. The second point was that he did not understand the power of the Demon-Suppressing Iron Cavalry. The third point was that he continued to withdraw from the stronghold, which made Bantuo and other troops feel arrogant. The fourth point was that he ignored the Beimang Iron Cavalry.
Buddha.
King Yongshan nodded calmly and said: "Mu Yan, wasn't he one of the main generals under the command of King Yue back then?"
Tu Chenglong said: "Back to the marshal, it is him. He is also his junior brother."
King Yongshan said: "I have remembered him. You told me about him before. But don't worry. Although this man has a strategy, he will definitely be defeated when I come."
As he said that, he looked at Tu Chenglong and said, "What are your plans next?"
Tu Chenglong said: "Back to the prince, my subordinates plan to attack Yunzhou City at midnight tonight."
King Yongshan nodded and said: "Okay, I will ask Mr. Zhu to help you."
Hearing this, Tu Chenglong looked at Zhu Qingyun who was sitting beside him drinking tea.
He pondered for a while, then a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and he nodded, "Then Mr. Lao Zhu."
If Zhu Qingyun takes action, his junior brother Mu Yan will definitely die tonight.
Once Mu Yan dies, Yunzhou City will surely fall.
After passing Zhuxian City, you will reach the Imperial City of Beijing and Zhou Dynasties.
Tu Chenglong clenched his fists excitedly. King Yongshan would be the king of heaven, and he would definitely be named a duke.
He was excited in his heart when he heard King Yongshan say: "I will recommend someone to you in a moment. He will cooperate with you tonight to win Yunzhou City."
Tu Chenglong was slightly stunned: "Prince, who is it?"
